Abstract (en)

The invention concerns a seam clip made from electrically conductive material, the clip being substantially formed in a U-shaped section having two limbs (3, 4) forming a channel therebetween enabling the clip to be accommodated over abutting edges of panels which form an electrical equipment enclosure. The clip is characterised in that each limb (3, 4) is provided with a plurality of holes (2), said holes (2) having edges protruding into the channel, so that in use, the edges of said holes (2) make good electrical contact with the abutting edges of the panels, and thereby reduce electromagnetic (EM) emission from the enclosure. <IMAGE>
